PRIMARY CARE PRECEPTORS – Adds to existing law to provide for continuing education credits for certain primary care preceptors.

This Idaho bill provides continuing education credit for primary care nurses and physicians/physician assistants who mentor graduate students in rural healthcare shortage areas. To qualify, preceptors must document 360+ hours of unpaid mentoring to students pursuing primary care degrees over two years. The credit counts toward required continuing education for license renewal under Idaho's nursing and medical regulations. It specifically targets healthcare professionals in underserved rural communities to support training for future primary care providers.
